O cruor sanguinis
O cruor sanguinis,
qui in alto sonuisti,
cum omnia elementa se implicuerunt
in lamentabilem vocem cum tremore,
quia sanguis Creatoris sui illa tetigit.
Unge nos de languoribus nostris.

O bloodshed
O bloodshed
with which the heights resounded
as all the elements enfolded themselves
in wailing voices, trembling,
as the Creator's own blood touched them.
Sooth our ills, relieve our distress.
